Maybe not the answer that you are looking for, but there is a free widget in the Market called 'SilentMode OnOff'.
Once installed, you can add it to your desktop(?) as a widget (1x1). It is a button that has 3 states:
* Normal (not silent)
* Silent with vibrate
* Silent without vibrate
It's like a mini version of the stock widget that allows you to enable/disable wifi/bluetooth/GPS/sync/etc.
I find this easier than using the volume buttons on the side to make it silent before bed. Those buttons don't feel like they'll last very long anyway...
HTH,

It is possible to have the options you are talking about, I have them in my power menu, but you need a deodexed custom rom to get them.
It comes standard in leedroid and rcmixhd, and is an optional addon for android revolution.

Just hold down the vol- button. It will go to silent mode first, followed by silent with vibration.

There's an HTC widget called Profiles under Settings in the widget list. Does the job for me.

Yes custom ROMs such as the latest LeeDrOiD 1.3 / 1.3a have the power menu you describe when you hold the power button however be warned if you are flashing it make damn sure you have Radio S-Off using One Click Radio S-Off. You will need root access and Eng S-off using Clockwork Recovery but be sure you get RADIO S-OFF as if you don't you'll loose full super user access and get other restrictions that come with the latest 2.2.1 build by HTC that there is currently no fix for. believe me this is how my phone is now as this wasn't made clear on the guide on the LeeDrOiD page.

Trackpad Not Working

Can anyone give me any advice.
After flashing Carbon ara theme V2.5.1 over a previous version and Leedroid 2.3d, I have noticed by OJ has stopped working. I have tried editing sms message using it but it is dead.
I then went into Clockwork recovery but is doesnt work there either. I managed to restore to a previous version using Rom Manager but the OJ is still dead. I am unsure if this is a hardware issue or I am not getting a full wipe using Rom manager.
Also as it doesnt work in recovery my options are limited as I cant select any options!
Help!
Update
My phone now has no rom and I cant get trackpad button to work to accept install zip in recovery. Is there another way of installing a rom without needing the trackpad button.
Send it in for repair. I am sure that you can use fastboot. Search the forums.
ah...can you click track pad buttom?
and if the buttom doesn't work, i recommend you send to manufacturer.
Trackpad is only functional inside custom recovery.
Use volume keys marked with + and -.
Thanks guys. Got the phone going again but still no scrolling. The click does work though.

If you're using ARHD (or one of the other Sense 3 ROMs built using the same base) go to Menu > Settings > Security and enable "use secure credentials".
Thank you, get this problem solved, but why is this, this problem emerges just about 3 or 4 days ago, before that, everything was fine

thanks, I had the same problem on my classic desire (bravo) with acesmod007-3d (as you said a sense 3.0 rom) and that fixed it.
I also have this problem intermittently. I'm using s sense 3.0 based Rom. It comes and goes. I just did the creditentials thing and it fixed it.. but does anyone know why it happens? Im guessing its something to do with the screen shot feature?
I have a HTC inspire...
It was a program cant remember what it was but when removed all was fine.
I have rooted my phone and am waiting to install a custom ROM... cant wait

[Q] Help

I'm not sure, if I'm right here. I use this site for the first time.
So, I have a little problem, and maybe you can help me.
Yeah, it's right: I've a HTC Wildfire S.
Now:
You know the phone well I think. My english isn't that good. At the top of the smartphone there is a button with which you can unlock the display/screen. But right there is my problem. This button doesn't work anymore. And HTC won't to that for free.
My question is: Could somebody of you - if it isn't difficult - make a ROM or something like this to change it? So that I can use something different for it? Like the buttons on the display or the loudspeaker buttons?
And there is another question: How I could lock the screen, if this button doesn't work?
I hope you can help me!!
In fact this is not only lock/unlock button, but the power on/off button. If ever your phone gets off, it's dead.
It is not possible to remap the hardware buttons. don't you have guanrantee?
Yes, I know that. But with changing the battery the phone could power on..
Do you mean that you cant do something like I want?
Yes. It is not possible. There is a way to wake up your phone with vol. buttons in a custom rom and locking can be done automatically in the security settings. but when your power button does not work you will not be able to flash a custom rom.
Thanks. That's not that what I hope. But better than no answer
To the guarantee question..normally yes..but they say it's my fault..I dropped it...but yes I dropped it but after 3 weeks the phone doesn't work..can tsomething like that be?
Try claiming on insurance for accidental damage.

Did you try to put off the button and see if you can "fix" it manually?
I mean, if a small piece of plastic is broken, you should be able to stick it...
I don't know the exact condition, I'm just guessing and trying to help you.
since wfs has only 3 buttons, u broke the third of your phone.... and to make things worse, its power button ...
why dont you go to some phone service, and see if they could fix that button, it shouldnt be expencive, i did that on my htc tytn II....
First of all, I want to thank you all !

2) IF YOU DONT HAVE CUSTOM RECOVERY/ARE NOT ROOTED - Click here, sign up, click on resources then click testing resources. Download the Auto-Installer GUI. Run the installer (Windows?) and then install cwm recovery and root.
3) Download Rom Manager from the Android market
4) Download Hensemod here, flash it using rom manager.
5) Enjoy Henry's wake by volume feature his amazing sense rom.
Any problems then DON'T BE AFRAID TO CONTACT ME! I will always reply even if it is a few days later.

replace Sense 3 lockscreen with Sense 2?

Is there a way to get the older lockscreen back onto a Sense 3 ROM?
Or even, are there any optimised Sense 2 ROMs? It seems all ROMs in the dev section use Sense 3 (and I'm not a fan)..

Ill see if I can pull the lockscreen apk out of an old rom for you later. But its as easy as pulling the htclockscreen.apk out of an old rom
Until he answer you i have a bit different solution, by using WidgetLocker, here is a market link to it : Widget Locker, it's tested and i can say, best and most customizable lockscreen out there. Good luck.
Story short , i updated my wife's wfs to 2.3.5, and the unlock screen as well as answering screen is a bit choppy (using official rom , s-on, hboot 0.90000 - noob) and i was wondering how can i get the 2.3.3 lock screen (no apps from market, stock one) or how to downgrade from 2.3.5 if that is even possible ? pls help
I have build a stock 2.3.5 Europe version with the older style slide unlock.I didn't like the unlock rings myself and i couldn't install any RUU files after unlocking the boot-loader so i built it to try.Works very good here, i use CWM to flash the zip in recovery.If you would like to try it here is the un-direct link as i cant post a direct link as i am a new member.

I also didn't like it much and tried an experiment. It doesn't get the sense lock screen but removes those ring lock and gets the basic lock screen of android. Thats much better than the ring lock.
To do this you must be a root user.
1. Open a file browser in your mobile(I prefer root explorer but any other file browser would do which allows to access root.)
2. Go to location root/system/app
3. If you are using root explorer, you'd find on the top, a button r/w. Pressing this button gives you the read and write accesses of the root files.
4. Just move htclockscreen.apk and htclockscreen.odex to any other location(preferably sd card)
5. Restart your phone.
6. You'd get the basic style android lockscreen.
7. This method is irreversible. So if you want to get the previous screen back and doubt that you might not like it, you better do a ROM backup before doing any of this.
Advantages :-
Phone responds faster while unlocking screen.
Very simple interface
Pretty much attractive too
Disdvantages :-
You can not get the screen lock back if you have done this once.
To get the ring lock back you'd either need to reflash your backup or would hav to use widgetlocker app.
Biggest Disadvantage :-
If you receive a call while your phone is locked, the light won't turn on, you'd fist have to unlock the phone to see the caller and then only you'd be able to receive or reject the call.
I have experimented this method on my WFS. It worked. But I didn't like the unlocking while receving the call, hence I reflashed my backup.... All the best....
rockdev - please tell me are there any problems with the sense 2.0 lockscreen on the 2.3.5 update, beacause i'm interested in installing your rom, do you still have notifications on your screen even with this lockscreen ? my w's device is s-on with hboot 0.9000 but i am going to unlock it if this method is worth, or do you suggets otherwise. 10x in advance

No problems with mine at this stage the lockscreen works perfectly, it runs very well.I still have all the notifications and everything.It is stock standard expect the lockscreen and the power fix for longer battery life. my phone is s-on i have hboot 1.08.009 but i have the bootloader unlocked through htc.I flash it from CWM in recovery mode hope that helps.
cheers

I totally agree.... It's just a basic lockscreen but the problem is that to get this, you'd require to be rooted. S-On wouldn't be a problem.... You can still handle it but as already said, while attending the call, you'd require to unlock the phone first....
Enjoy....
ok, so let get this straight, the lock screen works flawlessly but when someone calls ,it won't unlock itself for me to pick up, (like in in sense 2.0, where you need to swype up and down in order to answer or reject), and i have to first unlock the screen (while phone is ringing) and second to swype, also i'd like to thank you for your quick responses.

Yes that's correct you need to swipe it sideways to unlock the phone then either except or decline the phone call. I prefer to do this as with the lock rings i was always missing calls or worse hanging them up.I can do another rom with the slide down unlock if that's preferred I actually built that type first it was dexoed zipalined... but I preferred the slide unlock better.
Let me know if you would prefer the slide down type of unlock as i can build another and upload it.I also have a stock 2.3.5 all original which i built first its has the lock rings.I just couldn't flash any RUU files no matter what i tried so that's why I extracted the image's from the RUU file and built my own.
cheers

[Q] Disable trackball unlock - rsk sense 3.5 rom

Hi guys,
I'm using the 'RSK team sense 3.5 with amaze cam' rom on my desire and was hoping to disable the trackball unlock feature. It keeps unlocking in my pocket and it's really frustrating. I've seen a few fixes around: one that fixes stock and one that fixes cm7 and was wondering whether these can safely be applied, or whether I need a specific fix for this rom OR, alternatively, whether there is a menu option hidden in the rom somewhere I'm just not seeing.
The fix I found for stock and cm7 is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14453689&postcount=10687
Thanks for your help!
I think that the option for T2U is in RC mix tweaks option.

There's an option in the aroma installer, but it doesn't appear to work. And although there's an option in the tweaks 3D settings for volume-key wake, there doesn't appear to be one for trackball :S
yh the option is in aroma setup like said above. u could look in the attachments of the rom thread coz theres sometimes zip files u can flash in recovery to disable/enable trackball wake etc etc

Did you ever get to the bottom of this? I'm also using the latest RSK rom and the trackball unlock is really bothering me and there doesn't seem like a way to turn it off.

Like i said above, the answer and zip file is there. Go to desire android development, go down to RSK rom and at the end of the rom title there is a wee paper clip (thats the attachments) click it, zip file there + other usefull sh*t.

Hmm... Ok. U could try look in other sense 3.5 roms for the correct 1. This is probably not recommended but i used to do it all the time with sense 3.5 roms and never had a problem. Just nandroid first before flashing anything
